Ran to Mom and Dads for lunch Tuesday and while visiting my brother showed up in a brand new Shelby GT500. He bought it in Blackfoot, Idaho. Bright Red with White stripes. I said give me the keys and he let me take it for a spin. Man is that thing quick, amazed me how fast it got up around the 100 mph mark and there were still a couple of gears left. I asked what he used 5th and 6th for?

Sure was fun, guess I can at least say I've driven a new Shelby.

A mustang club friend just purchased the same car a couple of weeks ago. Beautiful. His GT500 had the red inserts on the seat. I really like the red stitching in the leather. Nice touch.

Drove through the Rexburg Idaho Ford dealership last night and they have a new white CS on the lot. I've still avoided seeing the new blue CS keeping me from having to give in to temptation.

Yes I love this commercial, but here is the real thing. Both the graber orange and red/white Shelby GT 500 are a husband and wife team. They detailed the graber orange out like that of what a Mach 1 would look like and did an excellent job, and the red one is the real thing.

Grabber orange isn't my # 1 color, but the white strips makes it look so awsome. Makes me think twice about the color. HRG
